At 1:27 P.M. Wednesday, Justin Hinton of Kentucky was sitting in his semi tractor- trailer on the shoulder of State Road 161, south of Holland, awaiting roadside service for two flat tires.

She was placed into custody and transported to the Dubois County Security Center on charges of Operating While Intoxicated.
